Hmm I'm not listed skimmed through a lot seems they are all the ones with a DBA(business name) so maybe that's the deal right now. Having skimmed through I'm glad I don't have the other state inspector, she seems a bit picky.

I found one listed that was just a name (no DBA) in my state. They are still reviewing so don't know yet if all reports will be included or just ones meeting certain unknown requirements. I do know I don't want to have to skim through a giant pdf file to find a particular licensee.

USDA's system of finding licensees has always been a mess. But this does seem a lot worse than it was before. It really shouldn't be hard to make a simple search engine with names and inspection reports.

I'm Fable and Ifrit's mommy. Also mommy to Carousel, Breeze, and a bunch of snakes, lizards, and spiders. Oh, and one amphibian!

The link I posted was just updated today. Looks like they are pretty much done deciding which inspections to post. The list previously mentioned in the original post (list of those holding USDA licenses) will be updated monthly according to the page I linked to.

"Once a month, we also publicly post a list of our licensees/registrants that are regulated under the Animal Welfare Act. Please click on List of Persons Licensed or Registered under the AWA to see the up-to-date list."

Looks like back to requiring Freedom of Information Act requests for most reports.

So I got a letter saying they will be putting inspection reports back on the site but will be redacting info to protect homestead businesses(so people like Ash and myself who have our home address with USDA instead of a separate business address. Not sure when just said sometime soon.
